567, one day, you will see me on the big screen!

Hu Shuo nodded slightly: "It doesn't matter. Competition brings pressure, and only then can we make better progress!"

"It seems that Mr. Hu is very confident!" Wang Qi sighed with emotion.

"I have confidence in "Titanic"." Hu Shuo smiled.

When mentioning the "Titanic" project, Wang Qi looked solemn: "I really didn't expect that the first project to establish an overseas branch would be such a big project."

"Stressed?"

"Of course there is pressure! This is a project with a budget of US$500 million!" Wang Qi sighed.

"Just do your best, obey destiny, and work hard."

"By the way, how's the contact with the special effects production team going?" Hu Shuo asked.

"I contacted the special effects production team of Dreamland, and they were interested in changing jobs, but the conditions were quite stringent."

"Dreamland?"

I am relatively unfamiliar with the name Hu Shuo.

"It seems Mr. Hu has never heard of this company?"

"Well, let's hear it!"

"Dreamland is a long-established animation company in the United States. It owns many animation IPs that are well-known in North America and Europe, such as Unlucky Duck, Short-eared Rabbit..."

"However, in recent years, the animation works produced by Dreamland have been box-office hits, and the company has reached the edge of bankruptcy. Recently, its owner is trying to sell the company. However, he wants to package it for sale, so there are few

The company is willing to take over."

"The special effects production team of Dreamland is very experienced and is one of the top special effects production teams in Hollywood. If you can recruit their special effects production team, they can basically help you with any idea you have, Mr. Hu.

Finish!"

Wang Qi briefly introduced the situation of Dreamland.

"A long-established animation company on the verge of bankruptcy, with a top-notch special effects production team..."

After hearing these key messages, Hu Shuo couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

"How much would it cost to fully acquire their company?"

Hu Shuo asked.

"Wholly-owned acquisition?"

Wang Qi was surprised. Seeing that Hu Shuo didn't ask casually, he immediately thought about it seriously and replied: "The current valuation of their company should be between 1 billion and 2 billion US dollars. After all, it is an entertainment company.

Therefore, the company’s valuation flexibility is relatively large. For example, the value of the animation IPs owned by their company is a matter of opinion!”

Hu Shuo nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and then asked: "When will you officially leave Star Factory?"

"It depends on the situation, it will be fine in about a week. After all, Edward has already arrived." Wang Qi thought for a while and replied.

"Well, let's do this. After you resign from Star Factory, fly to the United States to find the owner of Dreamland to discuss the acquisition!" Hu Shuo said with a serious face.

"ah?"

"Acquiring Dreamland?"

Although Hu Shuo already had this hint in his words, Wang Qi was still very surprised when he said it.

"Mr. Hu, with all due respect, the only valuable things in Dreamland are their animation IP and special effects production team. However, they refused to split and sell, but packaged and sold the entire company. This is actually for the acquirer.

It’s not appropriate.”

Wang Qi put forward his own opinions.

"You go and talk about it first. As long as the price is right, it doesn't matter if you package it for acquisition." Hu Shuo waved his hand and added: "This is the first official task the company has given you. I hope you can complete it successfully!"

"All right!"

"I'll try!"

Seeing that Hu Shuo didn't seem to be joking, Wang Qi nodded solemnly.

afternoon.

From the actor information provided by Zhang Ying, Hu Shuo selected ten actors who he thought were suitable to play the heroine Rose, and then notified Zhang Ying to ask them to come for an interview.

Since they are all foreign actresses, the interview time is scheduled for a week later. The interview location is the headquarters of Chuangshi Entertainment. Those who do not come for the interview will be deemed to have given up.

Zhang Ying's execution ability is still very strong. After receiving the order, she directly sent email notifications one by one according to the candidates selected by Hu Shuo.

Across the ocean.

An ordinary western restaurant in Los Angeles.

The waitress "Winslet" was scolded by a customer just now. The cause of the incident was that she deserted when ordering and recited her lines silently in her mind.

In fact, she only had three lines, and it was a small role she was going to audition for in the afternoon.

Due to the existence of Hollywood, there are countless men and women hiding in all walks of life in Los Angeles, including restaurant waiters, taxi drivers, hotel security guards and even beggars begging on the streets with dreams of becoming stars.

Therefore, there are countless part-time actors like Winslet who work in restaurants, and many of them have even waited here for ten or even twenty years for an opportunity.

In a slightly more upscale restaurant in Los Angeles, as long as you pose as a sponsor and talk loudly about preparing a movie, a waitress might take the initiative to give you her business card and say that she can "have a drink" with you after get off work. ”.

"Winslet, it's work time now, you should forget about your damn dream of becoming a star!"

In the corner of the restaurant, manager Morais pointed at Winslet's nose and cursed.

"sorry……"

Winslet apologized softly.

"You don't need to apologize to me, but to the customers who disappointed you!"

"No! You don't need to apologize! You're fired! Yes, you're fired! What we need is a dedicated waiter, not a dedicated actor!!"

"You can leave!!!"

Morais yelled rudely, and then pointed angrily at the door of the restaurant. Because this was the third time Winslet had made a mistake in a week, he could no longer bear it.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I promise it won't happen again..."

Tears were already rolling in Winslet's eyes. She had changed countless jobs due to work absences. However, she really loved acting, so as long as there was an interview opportunity, she would focus all her energy on it.

In that role, even if it was a one-line role, she would have to recite that line hundreds of times silently and express it with several different emotions.

"I'm sorry too, you won't have another chance to make a mistake!"

"go!out!!"

Morais roared with bulging veins.

Seeing this, Winslet knew that the matter was irreversible. She bowed weakly, walked to the dressing room, and then left the restaurant while wiping her tears.

"goodbye!"

"My big star!!"

When Winslet left, Mores did not forget to sneer and mock.

Hearing this, Winslet, who had already walked out of the restaurant, suddenly stopped, looked back and stared at the other person, and replied decisively: "One day, you will see me on the big screen!!"
